Still Painting
I have been telling you I have been painting lately, but I haven’t shown you anything new for a while. I am still painting and actually have too many things going on now in my crowded little studio room.I have been working on this one for quite some time as there needed to be a [...]
The Tag of Two (or Three) Men…
I have been tagged by Cynthia over at Oasis Writing Link. I am to show you the sixth photo in my sixth file, then I am supposed to tell you a story about it. Are you ready? Here we go…No, this is not the sixth photo in the sixth file on my computer. I do [...]
